Advice about what though. If you need a job you need a job. if you cant work cos your family are high risk then I guess you cant.
Only option would be to find a wfh job

Advice on what we are supposed to do really. There must be others in the same position?

You claim the relevant benefits then reassess as and when you know more?

Who in the family needs to self-isolate?

Tesco were hiring people incredibly quickly to stack shelves yesterday. Iceland & Aldi are looking for people, too.

You might need to find a way to minimise contact with the high-risk people; but that's going to be the case for whoever goes out shopping etc anyway.

Looks like we can't get benefits. Really trying to think outside the box.

Where would be the best place to look for the work from home jobs? They seem to need experience from what I can see.
